A Baby Bee Follows in Her Mama's Footsteps

Or should I say her mama's flight path?
It's okay. Stop groaning.
If I stretched that one tooooo far, I'll try to refrain from here on out.
(you didn't see I had my fingers crossed, did you?)

So, you might already know the More Creative Bee and I really love to enter the table setting contests at our Big County Fair. And you might even recall that last year my niece, Reader Bee, entered the table contest in the Jr. Division. Well this year? Why my little Baby Bee entered her own table setting in the Jr. Division!

Buzz! Buzz! Buzz! Buzzzzzzzzzzzz!

(that would be the sound of proud buzzing for those of you who don't speak Bee)

She decided she wanted to decorate for a birthday party! She made those sweet little hats including the fringe! I just showed her how and she made the rest. She picked out the scrapbook paper and the fringe color and everything. I think they are adorable!

The table comes with the white tablecloth so she added the gingham square and the napkin is a piece of fabric from my stash. She loves turquoise, lime green, and red. Hmmmm.....wonder where that comes from?

The green plate is from a set I use for Easter and the glass is an acrylic one we use at on our patio. The red flatware is our everyday flatware.

Baby Bee hand drew the menu too. Looks like we're having homemade Mac'N'Cheese, Caesar salad, and funfetti cupcakes. (You can go here to check out the Mac'N'Cheese that Baby Bee loves for me to make.)

So would you come to Baby Bee's Birthday Party?

Oh.....and just a casual aside here.....

guess who won BEST OF SHOW for the table settings this year?

Um....yeah....it would be ME!

(And the MCB! Couldn't do it without her!)

And thank you so much for buzzin' in! Your visits are such a bright spot in my day.

I'll share soon why I have just not been able to post and visit much lately! I promise! It's for a good reason! Really!

P.S. I have still MORE table settings to share with you along with the Christmas trees! C'mon back and see!

I can't believe that baby bee is all grown up and decorating tables of her own. Love her cute party hats! Soon she will be winning best of show. Congrats and I am sure it is very well deserved. Baby bee is a chip off the old block. Thanks for sharing with Share Your Cup.Hugs,Jann
